My Evs experience in the Czech Republic

Category Archives: Uncategorized

I went with Mary to Moravské Budejovice. We made an activity there and after I came to visit Florian to Mysliborice, I had time enough to visit the place by myself, there are only few streets but a really nice castle. Here you have some pictures. Florian showed to me the place and the amazingly big gardens behind the castle. The weekend before there was a wedding, I can imagine why the couple choose this place.

The next morning, Florian came with me to Pelhrimov. We met the friends of Bohdanka from Poland and we came together to a restaurant. Then on Saturday, Eleonora, Florian, Max and one friend more, Sara (also EVS) we traveled to Telc. It was the perfect choice because there was an event of vintage cars, motos and bikes with some competitions and exhibitions. We visited the castle and the gardens, some lakes where also really nice places.

We have one activity that last one week, the week against racism. Each day we discover and showed to the people our different countries. We tryed typical food and heard some tradicional music. Also we discovered that we aren’t than much different as we thought. After, in my eastern holidays, I went to Budapest for 4 days. It was an amazing experience!

And I just came back and I went to a project in Fulnek, which was about the heritage of our countries and we saw really nice places like a castle, a monastery, a church full of histories and a big factory in Ostrava. In the way back to Pelhrimov I saw big groups of deers and eagles!!

Other activities we had were the information week, where we could enjoy with the adventures of other volunteers in their projects! We “saw” and “tasted” Paraguay, Spain, Italy and England. And we did one activity in the school of Nova Cerekev and one day I went to Písek where I had a nice journey in that city where I discovered that there is one bridge older than Karlův Most in Prague with exactly 111 meters and the same kind of architecture.

Also I had an activity in the orphanage of Senožaty. I did with the children there a creative workshop with a paper technique called “Quilling” and after we had a training of table tenis. I enjoyed a lot to be there with them. ^_^

The last things that happened this last week where that I had a visit of a friend who is doing Erasmus program in Bergen, Norway. We spent nice time together and I showed to him where I live and the surrounding area of Pelhrimov. And this saturday we had two activities: Clean Vysočina and the volunteers meeting where we could enjoy and share a lot of tools for work in the youth field 😉 After we had very nice and tasty dinner together!!

We were in Větrný Jeníkov school making an activity in English on Thursday.

Then on Friday we went to Jihlava, there were so nice students!!

On Saturday we were cooking this delicious Vánočka, and also soup and nuddles.

And on Sunday morning I went to the forest for a nice but a little windy day.

This week, is the week against racism. We are doing kind a lot of activities in Hodina H. Yesterday we had the Polish day and Bohdanka prepare a really nice presentation about her country, culture, music… We had also some tasty food from Poland and as she says: Everything is free!! So you are welcome today for Russian day, tomorrow for Spanish day and on Thursday for German day! More info in this link!

Here I want to introduce to you Florian! He is from Germany and will make the European Voluntary Service in Myslibořice. He has spent some days in Pelhřimov with us. Today, he has gone to his new place for seven months. Good luck in your project!! 😉
